Shakedown looks interesting...
Rally is facing strong opposition from the local Sami communities, saying that it will affect reindeer grazing. 14/18 stages are in those areas.

"Good" to see that the Swedish version of the Sami population, have found out how to make money from the Swedish society.
In Norway we have the same type of discussions with our indigenous people up north.
On our side of the border it has to do with wind power farms they say will destroy their reindeer possibility to find food.
This even though the swedish reindeer copes fine with the same turbines across the border.
They are just after money, and if you start giving them some, they want more and more.
hopefully the county of Västerbotten will see this, and overrule their request.
The organizer should have done an agreement once and for all, so no upcoming problems would appear every third year...
Sami population doesn´t own land, only reindeers...
I hope they will find agreement and everything goes smooth,cause im planning to be there:-)
My second visit of Sweden rally. First was in 2019
